Apart from his skills as a diplomat, His Excellency Dr. Jaishankar is one
of India’s leading strategic thinkers, especially on nuclear issues. He was
part of the exclusive group of 6-7 key Indian negotiators of the US-India
civilian nuclear cooperation agreement that was signed last month after 3
years of difficult give and take. The deal has transformed India’s
strategic landscape, and Dr. Jaishankar has graciously agreed to talk about
the process of achieving the landmark agreement and the benefits it
promises to bring India in the long term. He will also address other
foreign policy questions that he is involved with, including India’s
growing economic and socio-political links to South-east Asia.
